Gang,
Thanks for weighing in. Bill, my H has 2 siblings. His sister has always been emotional. She's always talked about how badly she felt about her parent's D. She always thought her dad was a jerk for cheating so much on his mom. She's never hidden the fact. She is very close to her mom and mildly close with her dad. She has different issues, like not performing well in school, but for the most part, she is emotionally in touch. H's brother seems to be doing fine as well. I'm sure he has his own stuff, but he is in disbelief over what H has done. My BIL basically learned at a very young to lean on his friends, not his parents. So he coped differently. My point is, each kid handled the emotional trauma differently.

IHJ,
I hear what you're saying. Don't worry. I'm still focusing on myself. But the book helps me to have some more patience.

The wierdest thing happened today. Lately, I've been reading mine and H's horiscope. When he's here, I read them to him. Two hours ago, I read his...

Capricorn:
Strange news comes your way. While you can't imagine how this involves you at first, you'll soon see how this directly involves (and benefits) you. Be creative when applying this newfound knowledge.

So, I asked if he received any news. He said no, that he hasn't been on email or his cell phone all day. So, later he gets a call from BIL. When he hangs up, i ask if he got strange news. he laughed and said no. So, then he goes to the store. He called me about a half hour ago to tell me that a friend of ours is ENGAGED! That is strange news becuase we never thougth he would actually propose to this woman. I was in shock. I said..'See... there's the news!" He just laughed at me, as if I'm crazy. I bet H will be asked to be in the wedding. That's probably how it will impact him.

Anyway, thanks for all the support. You guys are the best!
